# OCD
What a week. Where do I start? We drove down to Melbourne last Tuesday, leaving the first time at 5.20am. About fifteen minutes after we left, I asked He Who Must Be Amused if he was sure he’d turned off the grill. He wasn’t sure, so we turned around and came home. Of course, he’d turned it off. So at 5.45am, we headed off again…
I feel I should note for the record how the conversation went, accompanied by levels of surety that the grill had been turned off
- me (100%): Do to doo.
- D: Did you turn the grill off?
- me (99.9999%): Yes.
- D: Are you sure?
- me (50%): ..............no. Turn around.
Later – after losing all the warmth I had gathered with my foray into the blistering cold – we were once again on the Hume Highway about to pass the Campbelltown exit and the conversation went a little bit like this.
me (100%): If you ask me any questions about that fucking house I will be quite upset.

# re: OCD
You did fail to mention that you actually do forget to turn off the grill/stove/oven on a fairly regular basis.

# That is great
Confidence has a logarithmic drop off when related to issues of oven off, door locked, ipod not left on Def Leppard repeat, cat not left on roof, etc, etc

# re: That is great
I can assure you with towering certainty that no ipod of mine will ever be left on Def Leppard repeat. But…cat on roof? :- )

# mp3s breed and mutate
converging toward a probability 1 that you will have a Def Leppard mp3 in your collection the longer that you have an mp3 collection.
It used to be in the era of cassettes left in car dashboard that somehow one would become a Queen cassette tape, the Def Leppard analogy is true for mp3s.
And, don’t lie, you know you have left a cat on the roof. Happens all the time.
